Dispute Resolution

For several years, the momentum has swung to resolving disputes outside the courts. When cases can only be resolved inside the courts, judges are taking a more interventionist role. They are seeking to guide both parties by narrowing the focus to the important issues as a means to greater efficiency and shorter hearings. This can work in favour of parties who have the right attitude and preparation.
